Yesterday's physical therapy really upped the soreness level of my feet, ankles and knees. I'm having more trouble than usual standing and walking. I'm sure this is normal from after a physical therapy session, starting to move parts that have gotten a little rusty. But this is made worse by the fact that I have NO OTC painkillers left. No Alleve, no aspirin, no Tylenol, nothing.

I don't get my monthly benefits until the 1st, and am broke until then. I really, REALLY desperately need some muscular-skeletal painkillers.

Please, can anyone help me?

PT is one of the most painful, demanding, horrible experiences in the world. If it wasn't worth it, no one would EVER go.

The pain is normal. After PT for my knee when I fractured it in high school, I routinely would be left unable to move.

Looooots of ice is my recommendation, and start taking Advil/Alieve before sessions and for the next few days just prophylactically.

Sorry I can't help with the pain killers! ;-;

Actually, Advil/Alleve was what I was referring to. I'm broke, and can't buy them.
